UNWE Students Won Scholarships by the Institute of Certified Public Accountants

"The students who will receive these first two scholarships that we established should be proud," said Boyko Kostov and added: "Prof. Dr. Dimitar Dobrev, in addition to the President of ICPA, is the second Rector of UNWE and perhaps the first Bulgarian who has defended a dissertation in accounting in Germany. He has great merits for the development of both theory and practice in our country and it is not an accident that he is considered as patriarch of accounting thought in Bulgaria. Prof. Dr. Stancho Cholakov was the second President of ICPA, he was also Rector of the University of Economics in Varna, he was Minister of Finance and Governor of the BNB - both of them were outstanding personalities for their era, great professionals. Our idea is to promote these two personalities and to show by the establishment of these two scholarships our attitude towards higher education in accounting and auditing by supporting students who show excellent results in this field. By awarding these scholarships we would also like to motivate students to pursue a career in the auditing profession, which is the pinnacle of the accounting profession as a level of professionalism.
